Weight of bikes...

[FJRider]

The weight of a bike shouldn't be a problem as long as you keep it balanced.

Any small person should be able to ride any sized/weight bike they fancy, if they are confident in their own ability.

If you're not confident...stick to a small light bike that you can reach the ground flat feet, and pick up if you drop it.

Confidence is the key ... smaller bikes give this, but takes time too. Dont rush the confidence thing, at your own pace.... if you want a particular bike, find a way to get it, and be able to ride it confidently.

Ahh, Goblin. That's me! As much as I would love to own a sportsbike I just don't fit. Recently had a fang on a fireblade & I could barely move after 60km's. Tis a shame because I would love to spend some time on a 675 Triumph or GSXR 750. I love good handling bikes but for comfort I'm lumped with big wobbly ones.
